Mendel Update 


Mendel 

The StarPhoenix recently published an article mistakenly stating that the Children's Discovery Museum had withdrawn its proposal to become a tenant of the Mendel building when it's vacated in 2014. They posted a correction shortly, but we are still hearing from the public that many people believe the Museum has pulled out of the Mendel process. In fact, we are submitting a proposal to the City on September 15. We will keep you posted on our progress. If you think the Children's Discovery Museum would be a great addition to the Kinsmen Park area, let your Councillor know!
